How can I program a Python 749 key fob to a 2015 GMC truck with remote start?

is this a preSALES question or post installed. or what? or post intall and lost a FOB? tell the full story here, we can not guess. what is this Python thing (a aftermarket remote start kit) ask GM this? most cars this new the manual states that 3rd party remote starts will not work ask GM first. some sellers flat out lie to get money and know many customers will not return the unit or say there is no warranty many states now this down grade is *******. the makers online help is useless (faq) but is because of extreme complexity here(vast cars and years and models) the answer is call them on a phone or ask the authorized installer Python. all modern cars have and IMMO and this IMMO PASSKEY will not like any kind if bogus remote starts. the modern car used very complex rolling codes that are kept secret, even by law now. ask them? https://pythoncarsecurity.com/Products/ one of the most complex topics on any modern car 10x that with IMMO

Why doesn't rear axle come out after removing the c clips?

remove the tire and wheel assembly. Refer to Tire and Wheel Removal and Installation. Remove the brake caliper. Refer to Rear Brake Caliper Replacement. Remove the rear wheel speed sensor. Refer to Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Replacement. Remove the rear axle housing cover and the gasket. Refer to Rear Axle Housing Cover and Gasket Replacement (8.0/8.6 Inch Axle) ' Rear Axle Housing Cover and Gasket Replacement (9.5 Inch Axle). Remove the pinion shaft locking bolt On axles without a locking differential, remove the pinion shaft. (learn what locker means and does) or read the RPO list on car. On axles with a locking differential, remove the shaft part way. Rotate the case until the pinion shaft touches the housing.
  1. On axles with a locking differential, use a screwdriver, or a similar tool, in order to enter the differential case and rotate the C-lock?(1) until the C-lock aligns with the thrust block?(2).
  2. Push the flange of the axle shaft?(1) toward the differential.
remove the C-lock from the button end of the axle shaft. read the manual first. if he bearing is seized up and they can swell up and be tight the slide hammer is the only cure here. and is always best to use. (after all pre steps on 3 different axle types) not told by you. 1 get the RPO first from GM 2; then read the manual. 3: then act. easy as 1,2,3 ,not guessing and doing damage.

Fuel pump control module location 2008 GMC Acadia

OK NOW A SYMPTOM. CRANKS BUT WILL NOT STARTkey is bad,IMMO lamp glowing telling you the key is bad.do you have 5 pound key chain that wrecks all car locks? my guess no but the battery in truck is low underhood, 12vdc,car has Throttle Actuator Control throttle by wire and will not start or only idles or limits speed to 20mph if it fails TBW, TBW (TAC) has many failure modes and one is not to drive over people if Throttle pots (x4 )say its at WOTwide open throttle. or the silly motor fail and is jammed i the TB throttle body.there are 50 causes of no starts.and up to 20 tests to find it using real tools.guessing 49 times is costly.I never pull any pump on a whim and take bath in fuel the pump tests are easy on car ask.the PCM cuts fuel for many reasons, 6 at least.IMMO tops the list.fuses blownlean the PCM now,. do not fail to scan any modern car or go broke fast or have huge down times and piles of wasted labor or worse add wrong or bad parts or not calibrating them first. per service manual...SCAN ITI CRANK IT AND AT STALL i SCAN IT. NOW, KEY STILL ON AND THE DTC'SROLL OUT , MOST THE TIME.

Why does ignition lock cylinder just turn back and forth?

all that must be repaired is this car fitted out with IMMO and passive electronic keys? got insurance, all them tell them car was vandilized may INS CO> have special rules on that. unlike collision. so call them if if yes, tow car to shop get it fixed on them. we can not see what this car has there, lots of options!! the GM car has a RPO list based off VIN full # (all options listed) and will list IMMO PASSKEY, if there. and is the first thing to do on all cars. made 2decades, or go mad and broke fast. first things first and fuses good too. and scan the pCM for IMMO errors, etc. for sure the key switch was wrecked by them or more. more happens,

2001 gmc sierra sle cranks but won't start but someone before me messed with the wiring under the stirring wheel

Gmc sierra will not run. will crank but shut down.

no year car told, no engine told and is a pure engine/EFI question. a minute not 10second and dies, the dash IMMO lamp must not be unhappy or the engine is immoblizeds in 1 to 10 seconds. most cars or dead totally others. well , there are 50 causes or stalls on all engines we do up to 20 test using 10 or more tools to find real cause. guessing 50 times , no shop does that . can take the line and put in a can of gas it will run????????? HUH? this means test fuel works? sprayed into the intake and runs means it runs for 3seconds on test fueL and stalls/ we cant see your acts there, Impossible. too. here is the order (pure physics Otto cycle gas engine) ASE rules( books/training) engine must be good. (compressing tests pass and test fuel works.) spark must be good. if is test fuel works and and runs for 3 second is all a good sign then last is fuel all above ok testing fuel pressure must be at spec, no car told SO can not look that up. sierra what is it and year. Chevrolet C/K C1500 pickup or k = 4wd or ) what engine, lots of engine, Chevrolet Silverado Chevrolet Suburban top fix any car engine learn what is under hood first the RPO codes tell that. and VIN . by year

I have a 2009 GMC canyon that has no throttle response

Is the check engine light on, or yellow wrench light symbol? Hook up a professional grade scan tool an check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes . No throttle response , problem with electric throttle control . Two position sensors in gas pedal assembly - two position sensors in the electronic throttle body - plus a DC motor to control throttle plate position. Other poster has no clue. Dirty throttle body would not cause no throttle response, rough or unstable idle for sure. If this answer helps you, please donate whatever you can. Thank you! paypal.me/TesfayHaile rip-off

Q1: REVERSE IS DEAD TOO?> no VIN told or if transmission is automatic. or manual no engine told of 3 and tranny size matches engine power 4L60-e transmission is on 5.0L gm engine. I think most Envoy are A/T boxes. USA, shows this . PRNDL. Reverse. Drive and Low fail? say those words is east,. the transmission needs service, vast problems possible they are complex. causes, top:(SCAN THE PCM IS WISE SEE IF IT SEES A HUGE PROBLEM THERE.) BUT REVERSE DEAD IS A VERY BAD SIGN. SCAN THE PCM FOR SOLENOID ERRORS!
  1. ATF oil leaked out of box and now dry, diP stick it? ATF smells burnt or looks like TAG is bad news. or metal flakes in the ATF DRIPPED TO A SHEET OF PAPER.
  2. fuses blown but most time reverse still works.!!!
  3. transmission shift linkage failed. (the service manual covers the steps to check that, Read the SM?)
  4. transmission shift solenoids bad. (reverse? has none)
  5. transmission is bad. (means removal time)
NOW IF REVERSE FAILS ALL THESE THINGS HAPPEN TO ATTAIN IT. you asked so here is a complex answer, (not all) AND LOTS MORE TO FAIL. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=447470

2009 GMC Acadia rpm is running high and giving p0497 code

hot or cold engine High and how high is RPM not told. no it is not evap failing to cause RPM failures. 2 problems sure, but not THE problem well gas cap loose or bad is first. simple fix that is costs nothing, and cap good or cap bad $10 fix.but not RPM off. then purge solenoid. RPM high is the best clue here. for sure mine fails every 50k miles it seems and pull the valve and flex the valve inside while spraying silicon oil spray inside it and it goes 50k more miles costing me 50 cents lube. 497 Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System No Flow During Purge the test in the service manual are extensive example
  • A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
  • A stuck closed, blocked, or restricted EVAP canister purge solenoid valve, can cause this DTC to set.
  • A blockage or restriction in the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve vacuum supply hose, EVAP canister purge solenoid valve purge pipe, EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
  • A temporary blockage in the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve, purge pipe or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any restriction in the EVAP system.
  • To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT High Intensity White Light. Introducing smoke in 15 second intervals will allow less pressure into the EVAP system. When the system is less pressurized, the smoke will sometimes escape in a more condensed manner.
  • To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
  • Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs that caused the DTC to set. This may assist in diagnosing the condition.
the valve is here "P" #10 if it leaks running, stuck open rpm can go wild or the hose to it is cracked purge-undefined-undefined-0.jpg
